A while ago we were sent some sets from Strictly Briks to play with. The company makes Lego compatible pieces which open up different ways to play with bricks. They specials it base plates and pieces so you can build towers, they also have letters and numbers you can use on the plates as well […]

I have written before about how I have completely ditched deodorants that contain aluminium for health reasons. On a day to day basis, I use Weleda Deodorants and some natural roll ons but I have to tell you that many of these work differently to regular deodorant. For one thing, they don’t block up your […]

Anyone who has read this blog knows that I LOVE STATIONERY. I have a huge collection of notebooks, pens, glue sticks – so many glue sticks. And of course I love STICKERS. When a company called Sticker You got in touch with me to ask if I’d like to pick some products to review, I […]

After months of months of hearing all about Glossier, the range finally landed on UK shores via their own snazzy website and I decided to make a few purchases to try out. The philosophy behind Glossier is a beauty that celebrates ‘real girls, real life’ – because that is fun and easy, imperfect and personal. […]

Essie really seem to be releasing a lot of nail polishes lately and I am quite impressed with my growing collection. After trying their Neon collection I rather liked the look of their Wild Nudes collection: These four rich creme colour shades are permanent and are ‘edgy’ nudes – I totally get that. They […]

There’s one thing I never get tired of testing and that’s foundation. Always on the look out for a new base, a new finish, a new texture…and despite Lancome having a huge range of formulas and shades, I haven’t used one of their bases in years. But, I was excited to try one of their […]

Dental care isn’t a particularly glamorous thing to talk about – but neither is hair removal, and us beauty bloggers love to talk about that…so…let’s talk about teeth. I use an electric toothbrush normally and it’s ok. I was excited at the chance to try the Foreo Issa Hybrid toothbrush because – well it can […]

So, my kiddos are currently obsessed with Disney’s Moana, which I adore because the music and animation is fantastic. They are also toying with Trolls, a Dreamworks production, which I find utterly annoying because of the lame story and average music…but you know, kids. They like what they like. That didn’t stop me from buying […]

I am most definitely at that age now where the sleepless nights are catching up on my face – I feel tired, I look tired. I am not one for injections or anything that involves PAIN or long term commitment in terms of skin care. I don’t want to get botox then have to get […]

Happy Thursday y’all. How is your week going? My laptop died last week and I have spent a week trying to recover everything which was…not at stressful as I thought. Maybe because I wasn’t living through my laptop as much as I used it, I went with the flow. At least I got my most […]

Ok so I am a huge fan of Ru Paul’s Drag race; a reality TV competition like X-Factor but for Drag Queens. Kim Chi was a contestant on Season 8 of Drag Race and a finalist – she happens to be Korean and I loved that there was a South East Asian queen on there […]

I was recently sent a little pouch featuring some make up from Lord & Berry to try. Lord & Berry is a boutique Italian fashion house who created the make up line in 1992. It’s an interesting brand for me in that, it doesn’t necessarily sell it’s products via pretty packaging – the branding is […]

I haven’t used Clinique in so long (the same applies to brands like Chanel, Dior, YSL – I guess Asian and niche brands have been taking my attention) I was actually really excited to test out their new foundation in that iconic shaped bottle. It’s like revisiting an old trusty friend. Superbalanced Silk Make Up […]

Pony (yes I know) is a well know known Korean make up artist who as far as I know, really made a name for herself on YouTube. I really do love watching her tutorials as they are a breath of fresh air – it’s not that she only does natural make up or anything like […]

I was talking to an old University friend the other day and we reminisced about how back in the day, her sister bought her a Stila Lip Glaze, which was £20 back then for a large tube, and we were both in awe of it since when I was a student, £20 for a make […]

Good afternoon all! Today I am reviewing my latest lipstick purchased from 3CE, which is actually part of a Korean fashion brand called Stylenanda, but happen to make some cool beauty products too. Their newest release is a limited edition collaboration with Barbapapa, a French character which looks like an pink blob that came to […]

Mega Matte is a new lip release from Boots’ own beauty brand SEVENTEEN. There is a huge trend at the moment for matte lips of course, although everyone’s definition of matte seems to vary from brand to brand! Mega Matte Lipstick promises to ‘glide on smoothly’ whilst being pigmented, totally matte and last for up […]

I’ve seen these Oval make up brushes around for a little while now and my first thought as GIMMICK. WHAT? What’s wrong with the brushes we already have eh? This looks like a giant toothbrush! They’re also so expensive. When I was offered the chance to review some brushes, any set my heart desired I […]

The sun has got it’s hat on….kind of. This is England. it can be boiling hot one day and thunder storming the next. That’s why I always carry a cardi. This weather makes my dry skin a bit loopy. Yes I still need tons of moisture because it tends to dry out in the sun, […]
